Thanks, everyone! Sounds like Creative Grids is a fav of many, so I am leaning in that direction. The quilt show is Friday, so hopefully I can compare some rulers...

I prefer the olfa frosted rulers because they are easy to read. They are not as skid resistant as the creative gridd ones, but more slip resistant than some of the other brands.

I do have some of the Creative Grids rulers, but I find the markings are too " busy" and have to pay close attention to what I am doing when using them.

Creative Grids. They absolutely don't slip. I'm replacing all my rulers with them and giving the old ones to friends who quilt. They are happy, but I'm happier. A couple of Eleanor Burns rulers will stay with me...I particularly like the Square UP bought in the 1980's and just can't let it go.

Creative grids is the best clearest ruler on the market.

Please let us know what you find and decide on. And the reason. (Inquiring minds want to know!!)

I like 8 x 24 --either Olfa or Creative Grid.

I have lots of different rulers and sizes. I mainly use a 6 x 24" ruler, don't remember who makes it.

Olfa frosted is my favorite. I have Creative Grids and it's much better than most, but I just like the visibility of olfa. I also like the 6x24 more than 8x24. I don't like working with rulers any bigger than I have to. My absolute favorite is a 6x12 Olfa frosted.
